CELLULAR & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

以前称为组织培养模块，该单元演变为一个包容性的设施，提供专业知识和资源，如组织培养细胞系，细菌，质粒，病毒和其他生物制品，这些生物制品保持在适当的储存温度下（通常在液氮或超低温冷冻箱中，并有CO2备份），参与研究者可以根据需要利用。 由一名经验丰富的技术人员在模块主管的监督下维护模块内的设施和设备，以便参与研究的研究者可以随时访问这些设施。 随着该模块的扩展，包括细胞和分子生物学，其中的设施和设备除了组织层流罩和培养箱外，还包括热循环仪、杂交炉、凝胶成像和记录系统等设备，以及液氮储存和超低温冷冻机（带CO2备份）。

Previously called the Tissue Culture Module, this unit evolved into a inclusive facility providing expertise and resources such as tissue culture cell lines, bacteria, plasmids, viruses, and other biologicals that are maintained at the appropriate storage temperatures (usually in liquid nitrogen or in ultra-low temperature freezers with CO2 backup), which participating investigators may draw upon as needed. An experienced technician who is supervised by the Module directors maintains the facility and the equipment housed within the Module such that the participating investigators can access these facilities at any time. With the expansion of this Module to include cellular and molecular biology, facilities and equipment within it include, in addition to the tissue laminar flow hoods and incubators, equipment such as thermal cyclers, hybridization ovens, and gel imaging and documentation systems, as well as liquid nitrogen storage and ultra-low temperature freezers with CO2 back-up.
